My peeps enjoy a quiche now and again..
But if you try to pass it off as a main dish for dinner, they look at you sideways. So I had to come up with a quiche that the menfolk would readily accept as dinner one day last week and I think I did good!
5 eggs
1 1/2 c half and half
1/2 bag of baby spinach, wilted in a little bacon fat and cooled well
2 cups grated Swiss cheese
8 strips bacon, cooked crisp and crumbled
1 package brown and serve breakfast sausages (frozen)
1 pie crust for a deep dish pie
Preheat over to 350. Cook bacon and shred cheese and set both aside. Using a tablespoon or so of the bacon fat, saute the spinach until just wilted and set aside to cool. Beat the eggs with the half and half and season with salt and pepper. Toss the grated cheese with a tablespoon of flour and sprinkle into the crust. Layer bacon pieces next, followed by a layer of the wilted spinach. Pour the egg mixture over that. Top with frozen sausages. Bake until set - about an hour and a half in my case.
